When lifting a feather pillow to put on a pillow case feels like you're trying to lift a ton. REALLY?! Come on body, work with me here. I know I had PT yesterday, but that was all leg and lower back work, and barely counts!
So, happy birthday to me. I got my letter from SSD yesterday (the 7th) stating that the review supported the initial determination, and that I'm not disabled.
Yay - NOT.
They CC'd my lawyers, s I'm guessing that my lawyers have already started the process of setting up a hearing with the...
Ugh. The tahini has separated. Nearly a full inch of oil on top of the ground sesame seed. It's a new jar. I don't even have the arm strength to stir it without my arms feeling like they're going to fall off! And of course, when I tried, the spoon stuck and then POPPED up and oil went everywhere...
Has done got up and went.
I don't know what happened! Last week I was al full-steam ahead. This weekend the only major cleaning that got done was de-cluttering of the DVR by catching up on "Walking Dead" and getting 6 hours of recorded material off of it. I did manage to "swish and swipe" ONE...
Braless best. Study says bras breasts saggier.
In short, if you've been wearing your bra for anything other than social convention? Don't worry about not wearing it unless you just really have to for appearance's sake!
Has anyone tried an "Anti-Inflammation Diet" for help with their fibromyalgia and/or arthritis/other issues? I'm looking at this as an option but wow, it'll be such a huge, radical change for me. The biggest problem is that I don't have a lot of freezer space (or even a lot of fridge space) as I...

Diabetes, hypothyroidism, PCOS, arthritis & degenerative discs in L1-S1 (spine) and associated radiating sciatic pain and muscle weakness, fibromyalgia with associated sleep disfunction (can't sleep at night but can't stay awake during the day, I swear, it's starting to...

So last year, which I'm thinking is really when this all started, I didn't do any gardening at all. Two years prior I had panted dwarf plumbago and it had taken over and it was beautiful. It all died out over this past winter, however, as despite being above freezing we're also already in Stage...
To get doctors to write prescriptions right?!
I went to my Internist and asked for my Tizinadine and Naproxen to be in 3-month prescriptions so that I can take advantage of a discount plan. We TALKED about it, and I gave it to her IN WRITING. She got the naproxen right, but wrote the tizinadine...
My mother has Fibro, and was diagnosed several years ago. She also has something the doctors are calling "burning mouth syndrome" where she can't handle ANYTHING spicy, not even black pepper, heck not even anything vinegary like tomatoes or pickles! She gets ulcers in her mouth that look...
